I’m reading her daughter’s book now and it is so well written. Maria Riva is an excellent writer.
Nice video, thanks for sharing all of the dates and details of her life and career. If people are commenting on your pronunciation those are minor criticisms keep up the good work!
Marlene was better at being Marlene than at being the characters in her films. SHE is the main character.
These videos are very infomative and interesting. I find myself becoming extremely irritated by the narrator's blatant errors in the pronunciation of many words and especially, the names of most of the actors. It seems as if the script is not previewed by the narrator. I would highly recommend these video shorts if only the pronunciation was more practiced and indeed, accurate and correct.
Her name was never pronounced as "Marleen" It was pronounced as "Marleena".
Also it's Dietri-"sh", not Diet-"rick"
Mar-lay-nah Dee-trik. I got my nose chewed at a film festival for saying it wrong.
To Steve Martin. Actually Marlayna
@@lewienew yes, but her daughter only called her DEE TRICK, because that what a lot of people knew her as.
The first time I watch the excellent actress Marlene Dietrich was in the movie "Witness for the Prosecution" (Billy Wilder, 1957), which starred the great and unforgettable Tyrone Power with Charles Laughton and Elsa Lanchester! Brilliant movie! Thanks.
Watching now.
Best review of her career I've seen! Very informative!
Her daughter Maria Riva remembered that Ribbentrop came to her apartment in Paris in the 30s.
He wanted her to come to him and she declined and said she would see him on but only on a scheduled date and time.
I think she met him because others asked her to do it to find out what he wanted.
When he came she was not impressed and he tried flattery to which in general she was immune to but especially in his case.
She showed no sign of him making an impression on her and had an indifferent attitude towards him bordering on being cold.
She gave him quick and to the point answers to his questions. For instance he asked her why she didn't come to Germany and make films and she said she had no interest.
He asked why she made films for Jews and her reply was, "Why shouldn't I? Jews make good films." Eventually she brought the "visit" to an end.
She didn't think of him or him coming to see her, as one way or the other. But it got around in the US and her meeting with him became a cause celebre.
Of course being her, again, she did not care about it one way or the other and regarded her meeting Ribbentrop incident.
In the thirties she contributed money to help Jews and dissidents escape from Germany.
She donated her entire earnings from the film Knight Without Armor ($450,000) and in 1939 renounced her German citizenship and became an American at the outbreak of the war.
In general she did not go public but she made an exception during the war she to sell war bonds and sold more than any other star.
During the war she went to Europe and the Pacific to entertain allied Troops sometimes not too far from where combat was taking place
and was asked why she did that she said, "Out of decency."
Good Video!
I had to pause after a few seconds. Her name was not ‘Marleen’ it was ‘Marl-lay-na’
What the HELL: do you really think all these celebs lived tragic lives? think again.
EXACTLY!!!
I've liked and subscribed 👍thank you RFP. Amazing actress. 🎬🎥
Alot of people think Marlene Dietrich chose to live in Paris, but the truth is she was living in exile. She was yearning to go back to Germany, but she wasn't welcome there post war. She was almost a hated figure especially by the common people of her generation and not even those that "used to be" stern Nazis. I'm talking about the regular person that didn't have the luxury to leave Nazi-Germany for a career in the US. My grandmother who lived in Berlin her whole life told me that when Marlene came to Berlin there were hardly any people welcoming her, people that probably adored her before the war would downright ignore her and she told me about situations where the staff of restaurants or shops that she entered refused to serve her and Dietrich had to leave. Obviously the post-war West-Berlin press in particular wouldn't publish these stories but since my grandmother worked in the lobby of a big Hotel on the Tauentzienstraße she would hear and witness alot in those days. Face to face people would play nice, especially the media and the entertainment industry but behind closed doors, people were calling her a traitor and Uncle Sam's prostitute. She noticed that people were only acting nice because they had to and that must have had a very big impact on her. That her "Heimat" was no more she must have finally understood on her first stage performance back on West-german soil in 1960. The crowd wasn't cheering, they were booing her and calling her all the things that others only dared to say behind close doors.
In 1964 she released the song "Mutter hast du mir vergeben"(mother did you forgive)(ua-cam.com/video/9vwGW-hRTHY/v-deo.html) which put her dire emotional situation on display for everyone who wanted to listen.
Imho she died a broken hearted woman, all her fame a burden.
Jesus, lots of people got out and they werent hated! Who wouldnt leave if could?! Seems they were resentful for having to stay. What bout all jews who left? Rest germans? My god humans are awful to each other.
It is so sad that humans are resentful of others who are fortunate not to suffer what some suffer. She got out like many many did. Sounds she tried to help in her way. All any if us can do. Get over it. She didnt denounce any germans. She stayed loyal. Y punish her when so many got out families split, etc.. dont condemn her. How petty.
I just finished googling her. Her personal life was so juicy! So many rumored affairs and relationships with well known men in Hollywood and politics 😳
I think she also had a lesbian love affair with Greta Garbo.
Juicy?? Try filthy and immoral. She was one of the most disgusting people ever.
@@jeanhodgson8623 I'm sure you say these things so you can feel better about your own life. personally, i don't care what others do because i have nothing to hide. most who judge others tend to be hypocrites, and are not great people themselves. why do you think so many churches are so corrupt? lol.
I shagged her.
Try reading Maria book it's like mommies dearest both narcississ
Not mentioned was her appearance in the all star cast "Around the World In Eighty Days".
I sure hope you wrote the Wikipedia entry, because you seem to be reading it word for word.
And only ONCE. The blatant errors in pronunciation are distracting enough to make these otherwise informative video shorts unwatchable.
Whats wrong with telking goid things. I see no evidence she was a terrible person yet all want her to be. Stop it.
George Sanders, The Picture of Dorian Gray, among others, married to 2 Gabor sisters - committed suicide (lots of nembutal) at age 65, saying "I was just bored...". Sad ending? I'd argue he left us on his own terms.
Even when they sound it out for you, you still can't pronounce names. *mar LAY na - D trick
thank you!
she died the very day I was born.💕
I was born five years later in may 6, 1997
I don't know why he says sad ending, however I think and believe he means it was very sad to see these Stars go because they contributed so much to everyone. 🤔
Please STOP with saying the sad ending. Dieing is a part of living. We all expect it. Stars live better then I ever did.
true. And she had some life...
Absolutely agree! Her death wasn’t sad (it was her time)
Wow resent much. Imagine painful death.
Look folks, regret to bring this your attention, but aside from how 'tragic' or 'sad' someone's life might be....Life IS about struggle n survival (study nature if you don't get it!) n the rest is all dressing, theatrics.......get over it!!!
Still Madonna is so "original?"
She's still very original till date ☺
Apparently, if you're thinking about her on a video that has nothing to do with her...
Sorry to point this out but the little girl’s photo is not Marlene at 1:00 look at the eyes features
Her singing was excellent: Johny and Lili Marlene!
She's a great singer, her songs still brings up memories till date, great German icon
You kidding? She was a lousy singer and epitomised perversion.
@@jeanhodgson8623 agree about the singing, but only on that point
Why sad endings for everyone? Not all the celebrities have side endings
My favorite movie of her is Kismit🌺🌺🌺inspired me to dance
nice profile picture ! I couldn't help but to say hello. Please always wear that smile.
She lived rich long life 🧐😳 what sad ending about it 🤔
Do you know sad ending life 🤔
Sad ending due rejection by her country i would imagine. He knows we all die. Those you who say had it goid cause celeb not very empathetic toward others. We all have demons and loss love tragedy.
Too many adds not pleasant 🧐😳
Sad ending? She was 90
Aloha
Marlen ah actually not marleen. Mar lehn ah.
Not such a tragic ending. We all die eventually, for Pete’s sake!
Sad she died alone , now Maria is going thru the same thing!
He singing voice what singing .she was hopeless she just was in the right place art the right time

Stop it. Arent all actors like this to degree?! Shame on you.
Lousy reading!
All facts are so wrong lol
Keep working at that pro-nun-cee-a-shun problem you have, foreign (German, Italian, Spanish ARE difficult for native American speakers to get their tongues around at first, however as I learned to not use words I could neither pronounce properly, spell properly, or define properly or risk really looking like an uneducated person, you will too) best of luck in future endeavors to use youtube.
It’s pronounced George Bernard shaw Bernard is one name not ber nard
Jesus, what's with this narrator ?
